And now for something completely different...
Not another one I hear you sigh!!

I'll be quick - as part of the collective shutter release "click" in this part of the world, here is my image of the partial eclipse of the Moon! One shot, Pentax KM attached to an Orion ST80, held by hand and steadied against the pool fence, ISO400 at 1/750s.

Cheers,
Mario

Kevin, Peter & Leon,

The pool fence comes in handy for scopes and binos!!

Cheers,
Mario
